In an interview with CNBC on Sunday, Faber
especially noted Japan. The country’s central bank has been purchasing
100% of the government bonds its treasury is issuing.

He said this kind of governmental asset buying will increase in the
immediate future, despite the fact that such policies are doing little
to stimulate the economy…

“The central banks
aren’t interested in what works, they’re interested in their own
prestige. And they are so deep into it already and it didn’t work. They
will increase the medicine,” said the Swiss investor. “Eventually,
they’ll buy all the government bonds; they’ll buy all the corporate
bonds, all the shares outstanding. Afterwards the housing market goes
down, they’ll buy all the homes and then the government will own
everything.”

Faber explained that, once this situation occurs – with governments
owning all the corporations and all the government bonds – socialism
will prevail…

Because there will be a third party candidate -- and their name will likely be Mitt with a Kasich or a Rubio on the same ticket.

Michael Bloomberg practically left a breadcrumb for this theory in
plain sight when he declared that he would not be running for President
this cycle. While pundits focused on why the math wouldn't work out for
Bloomberg against Trump or Hillary Clinton, the former mayor of New York
City buried this interesting analysis in his op-ed this week.

In a three-way race, it's unlikely any candidate would win a majority
of electoral votes, and then the power to choose the president would be
taken out of the hands of the American people and thrown to Congress.
The fact is, even if I were to receive the most popular votes and the
most electoral votes, victory would be highly unlikely, because most
members of Congress would vote for their party's nominee. Party
loyalists in Congress -- not the American people or the Electoral
College -- would determine the next president.

Central Park School for Children in
Durham, North Carolina has enrolled grade-school students in a “Black
Lives March and Rally” scheduled for March 17, 2016. The teachers can
opt-in or opt-out their classes, but parents have not been given a
choice.

Stef Bernal-Martinez, a teacher of
6-year-old children, signed up all the children in her class for a
“Black Lives March and Rally” to take place during the school day, at
the city’s downtown Central Park and Farmer’s Market. Ms.
Bernal-Martinez describes herself as a “Radical Queer Progressive
Educator” and “white-passing Xicana.”

The truth about these dysfunctional, downscale communities
is that they deserve to die. Economically, they are negative assets.
Morally, they are indefensible. Forget all your cheap, theatrical Bruce
Springsteen crap. Forget your sanctimony about struggling Rust Belt
factory towns and your conspiracy theories about the wily Orientals
stealing our jobs. The white American underclass is in thrall to a
vicious, selfish culture whose main products are misery and used heroin
needles. Donald Trump’s speeches make them feel good. So does OxyContin.
What they need isn’t analgesics, literal or political. They need real
opportunity, which means that they need real change, which means that
they need U-Haul.[1]

This is stunning contempt from "conservatives." They must get a $4,000
bonus for every article they write that attempts to make white people
look like superfluous, bigoted, drug-addled losers who deserve
everything if they disobey their betters and elect Trump.

FRENCH website Résistance Républicaine
reported in February that the commander-in-chief of the Norwegian army,
Odin Johannessen, has asserted that European countries must prepare and
be ready to fight "with actions and words and, if necessary, with arms,
to preserve the values that unite Europe. Europeans cannot continue to
live in peace and safety without defending themselves. You cannot win
wars without people on the ground." His statements echo those of other
European military commanders. In December, Swiss army commander, André
Blattmann, declared that the risk of social unrest is so great that
citizens would have to arm themselves.

IN
an internal document, Swedish Army Chief Gen. Anders Brännström ordered
his troops to prepare for a war in Europe “in a few years against
experienced opponents. The global environment in which we live and which
was put into place by [the politicians] leads one to conclude that we
could be at war in a few years,” Brännström wrote.

IN December,
the head of the Swiss Army, André Blattmann, warned that the risks of
social instability in Europe have intensified and that [Swiss] citizens
should arm themselves. "The threat of terrorism is extremely high;
unconventional warfare is taking place throughout the whole world; the
economic outlook is dark; and the influx of migrants resulting from
displaced persons and refugees have assumed unforeseen dimensions,"
Blattmann stated.

Things do not look good. The country is disintegrating. The borders
are open, against the will of much of the population. Our universities
are in sharp decline, the students a rebellious unschooled rabble
portending a peasant future. The economy gutters and standards of living
fall. Jobs are few and becoming fewer. Racial animosity is high and
rising, with blacks out of control and looting at will.

We have that least American of Presidents, a marginally competent
Afro-Indonesian confection of Moslem background who doesn’t like whites,
has little in common with most of the country and is now a virtual
dictator reshaping the country as he chooses. The Talking-Headocracy
supports this.

A Black Lives Matter
activist, thug and criminal by the name of Tef Poe has a message for
the white people of America. In fact, it's a threat. He tweeted out on
Wednesday, ""Dear white people if Trump wins young niggas such as myself
are fully hell bent on inciting riots everywhere we go. Just so you
know."

That's right, this inciter of insurrection, a crime under our
Constitution, actually informed people with light pigmented skin that
the "niggas" would be coming after us and rioting everywhere, which I
assume means in my home town too.

Are they going to cut their nose despite their face?… You know, if they
are going to be that self destructive, and if they’re going to pout, and
if they’re going to pick up their little toys, and they’re going to go
home like a bunch of babies, they will destroy, there will be no
Republican Party at the end of this. Because if they’re successful ,
Guess what? Cruz and Trump supporters are walking out. And, I’m walking
out with them."

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today filed a plan for “narrowly tailored discovery”
into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s email matter with a
federal court. Judicial Watch’s discovery plan seeks the testimony of
eight current and former State Department officials, including top State
Department official Patrick Kennedy, former State IT employee Bryan
Pagliano, and Clinton’s two top aides at the State Department: Cheryl
Mills and Huma Abedin. Judicial Watch’s plan says that “based on
information learned during discovery, the deposition of Mrs. Clinton may
be necessary” but would only occur with permission by the Court.

During a court hearing on February 23, U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan granted Judicial Watch’s motion for discovery
into whether the State Department and Clinton deliberately thwarted the
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for six years. The discovery arises
in a Judicial Watch FOIA lawsuit
that seeks records about the controversial employment status of Huma
Abedin, former Deputy Chief of Staff to Clinton. The lawsuit was reopened because of revelations about the clintonemail.com system. (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:13-cv-01363)).
Judicial Watch seeks testimony from:

President Barack Obama nominated Merrick B. Garland, who currently
serves as Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit, to replace the late Justice Antonin
Scalia. The White House's strategy was to pick someone whom they believe
will be politically difficult for Republican senators to simply ignore –
a stealth leftist recast as a “centrist.”

The White House even created a
new Twitter handle, @SCOTUSnom,
to rev up activists seeking to pressure Senate Republicans into giving
President Obama's nominee, in Obama's words, "a fair hearing and an
up-or-down vote.”

The Democratic Party has lost no time making Obama’s nomination a highly charged partisan issue.

I
was wading into the North Anna river, camera in hand, trying not to get
sucked downstream by the current. In my hand was a 150-year-old photo by
Timothy O’Sullivan of a group of Union soldiers bathing in the North
Anna towards the end of the American Civil War. I had been warned that
the bridge O’Sullivan stood on for his picture was gone, and halfway
across the water, I realised that there was no way I could achieve his
vantage point and re-create the shot.

My journey had begun a week earlier in Washington DC. Armed with a
sheaf of large-format prints of 23 original photographs of the American civil war,
my plan was to take my own photos from exactly the same spots. The
camera position, height, lens angle and perspective all needed to be as
close as possible to the original, to give a sense of how these historic
sites have transformed.

Five Members of the British Parliament and a Member of the European
Parliament have written to U.S. President Barack Obama urging him to
stay out of Britain’s referendum on the country’s membership of the
European Union (EU).

Peter Bone (Conservative), Kate Hoey (Labour), Kelvin Hopkins
(Labour), Tom Pursglove (Conservative), Sammy Wilson (Democratic
Unionist Party), and UKIP leader Nigel Farage have co-authored a letter
to President Obama warning him that an intervention by a foreign leader
could have the opposite effect than intended.

The letter states: “With so much at stake, it is imperative that the
question of exiting the European Union is not one answered by foreign
politicians or outside interests, but rather by the British people who
must ultimately live with change or the status quo.

Advisers to Donald Trump and Ted Cruz say there's no way they'll
allow John Kasich to even compete at a contested national convention —
let alone prevail.

Trump and Cruz are betting that their dual dominance in the delegate
hunt will permanently box out the Ohio governor, who has no mathematical
path to the nomination and is openly pursuing a floor fight at the
Republican National Convention in Cleveland. And their aides say Kasich
won't even make it to the floor.

Remembrance

To die for one’s country is not only an act of bravery, it is THE act of bravery. For soldiers, it is just an extension of their military career, a part of their duty. As leaders have asked their soldiers to sacrifice themselves for the good of the society, it is only right for leaders to go through the same motion. They should practice what they have preached.

As war is seen as a noble act, tu sat serves as redemption in case of defeat. It is also a way to tell the enemy: “You might have won the battle/war but you don’t deserve to win because you don’t have the chinh nghia (just cause).” And it is not only just cause: it is the moral belief that the cause they are fighting for deserves their total sacrifice.

My great grandfather and great uncle knew all the men in the "Civil War Requiem" video as they were part of the 53rd NC which was the sole unit defending Fort Mahone. (Fort Mahone was named "Fort Damnation" by the Yankees) *Handpicked men of the 53rd (My great grandfather was one of these) made the final, night assault at Petersburg in an attempt to break Grant's line. This was against Fort Stedman which was a few miles to the slight northeast. They initially succeeded, but reinforcements drove them back. This video is made from photographs which were taken the day after the 53rd evacuated the lines the night before to begin the retreat to Appomattox. I have many more pictures taken by the same photographer, one of these shows a 14 year old boy and the other is the famous picture of the blond, handsome soldier with his musket.
===========================
*General Gordon promised the men a gold medal and 30 days leave if they accomplished their task and many years after the War my great grandfather wrote General Gordon, who was then governor of Georgia about this incident. They exchanged several letters which I have framed. See first link below.

He was a drummer boy in the WBTS, survived the War only to die a few years later. He was caught in an ice storm on his way home, but instead of seeking shelter, continued on his horse until the end. His clothes had to be cut off and he died a few days later.
